The Green United States of Origin Islands is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Avon Solari with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.081 billion Originians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Origin City. The average income tax rate is 57.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Originian economy, worth 71.5 trillion Originian Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 66,129 Originian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Apples shaped like baguettes have become a strange new food fad, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, and the thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Origin Islands's national animal is the whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Cetoism.

Origin Islands is ranked 152,975^th in the world and 2,254^th in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.76 kickbacks per hour.
